ME TOO! But there's a lot of cats outside our house because my neighbors let them run around, so sometimes it feels like I have a cat...! And we take care of my aunts dog whenever they go on vacation!

Ooh, lucky! Dogs are so much fun! They are a lot of work, I'm guessing, but the companionship they give you is priceless! If I could just have one of my own...

Pardon me, but have we figured out what the animal club is about - i.e. what exactly we do? Just curious.

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I was taking theater classes that i had to get up at 8:00 when I am used to getting up at noon.

Anyway, I thought we could talk about animals, read animal books, and go on animal websites. Has anyone read the Warrior Cat Series?
